so yesterday we had an opportunity to meet with president obama at the white house to discuss some of these priorities. we invited the major republican candidates to be with us. of course, they're a little busy on the campaign trail. i think they're in south carolina, as a matter of fact. so to help us understand where this election is going, we've invited some of the nation's top political experts to frame the current debate. i'm very pleased that today we have with us steve schmidt who was senior campaign strategist and adviser to the presidential campaign of john mccain in 2008, a friend of mine and someone who has also advised my very close friend, a governor i worked with, governor schwarzenegger. i'm also extremely pleased that we have with us anita dunn who served as senior communications strategist for president obama in both the campaign and the white house. and we're most fortunate to have as our moderator today mike allen, the chief white house correspondent for politico. mike came to politico from "time" magazine where he was their white house correspondent. prior to that
